Finances disclosed
Gov, J J, Exon said Wednesday he plans to "set an
example" within 60 days, disclosing all his private
finances and investments in dollar amounts. 'I am waiting
uni2 an auditor completes my federal tax return for
1976," Exon said. The governor, who has long endorsed
legislation requiring full disclosure by top government
officials, said he wants to set the example before a new
law goes into effect. Exon said his disclosures in the past
have been what previous laws required. The new law, the
Nebraska Political Accountability and Disclosure Act,
has been interpreted by a legislative committee as not
requiring dollar amounts in listing assets.
Zaire invasion :
Washington-Secretary of State Cyrus Vance said Wed
nesday the foreign troops who have invaded Zaire are
moving along routes leading toward copper mines crucial
to the survival of the central African nation. He told the
House .International Relations Committee that the
invasion presents 'a dangerous situation. If something
happens to the copper mines it would be a very severe
blow to the government of Zaire,"" The secretary did not
.estimate the size of the force which entered Zaire from
neighboring Angola last week. Zaire claimed at least 5,000
mercenaries had invaded. Vance limited himself to saying
the invading troops are "made up primarily of Katangan"
police who fled to Angola when the Zaire government
crushed a rebellion in the province of Katanga in the.
1960s, Angola Wednesday denied any involvement ini
fighting in the Shaba province of Zaire and appealed toi
the west to ignore the governments pleas for military aid.
Bottle bill 'killed
-
The Nebraska Legislature Wednesday killed the
so-called bottle bill that would have required deposits on
all beverage containers. That was done when the Legis
lature voted 20-22 against the introducer's motion to raise
the bill, LB310, from the deadlocked Miscellaneous Subs,
jects Committee. Legislative rules state that if the in
troducer tries and fails to bring a bill out of committee,
and that committee has taken no action on the bill, it
dies. The committee had been deadlocked 4-4 on motions
to kill and advance LB310. Sens. Donald Dworak of
Columbus, Douglas Bereuter of Utica and Steve Fowler
of Lincoln took that chance Wednesday. The Legislature
rejected the motion and the bill died. The bill required
25 favorable votes to raise it to the legislative floor.
Drug amendment
State senators adopted an amendment to the drug
portion of the criminal code Wednesday that proponents
said was aimed at getting state police to concentrate on
halting hard drug traffic. Belwood Sen. Loran Schmit said
it was a matter of telling the State Patrol to "take the
tough ones first" rather than letting the patrol's drug
officers "chase, the marijuana smokers first and let the
tough nut escape " Neligh Sen. John DCamp said
California took a similar .step and increased the number of
arrests for use and traffic in harder drugs. The amendment
was adopted 29-6. Omaha Sen. Ernest Chambers' objected
because the amendment didn't go far enough and left the
real decision up to the patrol. He said that under the
amendment, the patrol conceivably could view marijuana
as the top priority.
Carter apologizes
Nicosia, Cyprus-President Carter has apologized to
Archbishop Makarios for "groundless assertions" that the
Cypriot president had been on the payroll of the Central
Intelligence Agency, the government reported Wednesday.
The Public Information Office said the apology came in
a letter to Makarios. The official announcement said Car
ter m his letter "expresses his regret at newspaper stories
in the United States charging that His Beatitude ailed ged
ly received payments from the Central Intelligence
Agency.9 The statement then quoted Carter as saying:
"As you know I have no control over the press media in
my country and I cannot prevent groundless assertions. I
,
wish to assure you cf my high personal esteem for you ,
and. the people of Cyprus, and I trust that these stories
which you have so effectively dismissed will not affect
the friendship we value with you."
: chepter
Zurich, Switzerland-Luciano Porcari, the hijacker who
forced a Spanish Iberia Airline Boeing 727 on a hop
scotch, 8,388-mile odyssey, apparently had planned the
incident as the end of a book an Italian newsman and
author was writing about him. Porcari, 36, called Ugo
Moretti Monday from Barcelona and asked how the book
was going. "It's all here, but it lacks the final chapter,"
Moretti said he said. "YouU read the final chapter in the
newspapers tomorrow morning. Thanks for everything.
If we dont see esch other ts&in, take care of the book,"
Moretti quoted Porcari as saying. Thus, the Italian auto
mechanic was heading to make the last chapter of his
book the most adventurous.
